 The Pubs still swallow The Big Lie, and it fuels their rabid fears and the bullshit theories they thrive on, making their daily life a constant struggle of good vs evil, fired up by Bullshit Mountain, the Pub Propaganda Machine, where they go to get their whackjob conspiracy theories validated, by the likes of Tucker Carlson and Sean Baby, who pushed the Replacement Theory that the last shooter took to heart.

More and more Republicans are “Stop the Steal” politicians even if they never attended or endorsed a “Stop the Steal” rally, because that scowling, sneering phrase taps into and touches on more than vote counts. It encourages a rebellion against cultural dynamics that offend some traditionalists. It blesses a revolt against the sorts of demographic trends that have given the “great replacement” theory such traction. It validates the complaint that some elite cabal is making decisions and hoarding riches at the expense of other Americans. It’s about all these things that are being taken away, all these things that must be taken back.

It indulges fictions that abet that mind-set, which explains a good deal of the popularity of Fox News. A week ago, one of the network’s pugnacious nighttime hosts, Sean Hannity, railed about photographs that he said showed “pallets and pallets of baby formula for illegal immigrants and their families” even as “hardworking American families” went without this vital resource. But as Alex Koppelman of CNN later noted in the Reliable Sources newsletter, the photos were instead of powdered milk, intended for children over a year old. “Outrage Creation” was the headline on Koppelman’s report.
